How to understand time column in text file saved by Labview with instrument Rigol oscillsoscope

Hi there, i am using RIGOL oscilloscope DS1052E to get data and saving in Lab View 2016 (Version 16-32 bit). I am getting time and voltage column, voltage values are understandable but time column values are in 10E-8 or 10E-09 which is not understandable.

Can i use this data to get time values for the said voltage values? I am using only 1 channel of scope.

VI file and 2 sample measurement files are attached.

 

Is there anyone to help please?

I'm thinking this is a scope setting issue and nothing to do with LabVIEW.  What is the timebase set to on your oscilloscope?

Hi

Nothing wrong with these files. The timebase is in seconds and starting at zero.

Feed these figures to an xy graph and you are done.
